Using natural multi-function phytochemicals could be one of the best solutions for clean-label production. In this study, dairy ice creams were prepared containing 14% egg yolk and 0.1% of thymol (THY), trans-cinnamaldehyde (TC), menthol (MEN), or vanillin (VAN). Then, the physical, chemical, and structural characteristics were evaluated. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis (a rapid, chemical-free, and non-invasive tool) was carried out to evaluate the water distribution. A multivariate analysis was conducted among all studied variables. According to the results, the overrun of the MEN ice cream was significantly increased as compared to the control sample. The density was also reduced in the MEN sample. Meanwhile, the spreadability (%) of VAN was significantly increased after 6 min as compared to the control treatment. MRI analysis revealed that water distribution was significantly changed in the THY group. The firmness and viscosity of THY samples were significantly increased (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that viscosity index and consistency were the top parameters affected by THY. The authors concluded that THY and VAN are promising stabilizers for ice-cream clean production.

The ice cream market is one of the developed segments of the food industry of Ukraine. Ice cream is a frozen product that is consumed all over the world. The work aimed to investigate the quality of parfait ice cream with vegetable fillings. The selection and justification of the components of the system, namely quail eggs, celery root, spinach leaves, was based on literature data and regulatory documentation, as well as laboratory data. Celery and spinach puree was chosen as one of the recipe components of ice cream, and the peculiarities of its preparation were studied. Parfait ice cream recipes with different ratios of vegetable fillers and pumpkin flour have been developed. The physiological and organoleptic parameters of ice cream with additional pumpkin flour, celery, and spinach puree were studied. According to the obtained results, the optimal content of pumpkin flour in ice cream is equal to 2–4 %, and vegetable puree – 25–35 %. It has been proved that pumpkin flour significantly affects the structural characteristics of ice cream mixes. They were melting resistance increases from 100 to 145 minutes. When increasing the flour content to 4 %. The dry matter content in ice cream varies depending on the amount of vegetable puree and pumpkin flour. However, the mass fraction of fat and dry nonfat milk residue does not change because the experimental samples were developed based on the composition of the control sample. Studies show that the new frozen dessert retains microbiological stability for six months. The combination of vegetable and dairy raw materials with pumpkin flour and quail eggs in the production of parfait ice cream provides the necessary whipping. It allows obtaining a product with specified rheological and physicochemical parameters.

Abstract. For more than a decade, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been routinely employed in clinical diagnostics because it allows non-invasive studies of anatomical structures and physiological processes in vivo and to differentiate between healthy and pathological states, particularly of soft tissue. Here, we demonstrate that MRI can likewise be applied to fossilized biological samples and help in elucidating paleopathological and paleoecological questions: Five anomalous guards of Jurassic and Cretaceous belemnites are presented along with putative paleopathological diagnoses directly derived from 3D MR images with microscopic resolution. Syn vivo deformities of both the mineralized internal rostrum and the surrounding former soft tissue can be traced back in part to traumatic events of predator-prey-interactions, and partly to parasitism. Besides, evidence is presented that the frequently observed anomalous apical collar might be indicative of an inflammatory disease. These findings highlight the potential of Magnetic Resonance techniques for further paleontological applications.

The identification of reliable and non-invasive oncology biomarkers remains a main priority in healthcare. There are only a few biomarkers that have been approved as diagnostic for cancer. The most frequently used cancer biomarkers are derived from either biological materials or imaging data. Most cancer biomarkers suffer from a lack of high specificity. However, the latest advancements in machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) have enabled the identification of highly predictive, disease-specific biomarkers. Such biomarkers can be used to diagnose cancer patients, to predict cancer prognosis, or even to predict treatment efficacy. Herein, we provide a summary of the current status of developing and applying Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarkers in cancer care. We focus on all aspects of MRI biomarkers, starting from MRI data collection, preprocessing and machine learning methods, and ending with summarizing the types of existing biomarkers and their clinical applications in different cancer types.

Ischemic injuries and local hypoxia can result in osteocytes dysfunction and play a key role in the pathogenesis of avascular osteonecrosis. Conventional imaging techniques including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) can reveal structural and functional changes within bony anatomy; however, characterization of osteocyte behavioral dynamics in the setting of osteonecrosis at the single cell resolution is limited. Here, we demonstrate an optical approach to study real-time osteocyte functions in vivo. Using nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) as a biomarker for metabolic dynamics in osteocytes, we showed that NADH level within osteocytes transiently increase significantly after local ischemia through non-invasive photo-induced thrombosis of afferent arterioles followed by a steady decline. Our study presents a non-invasive optical approach to study osteocyte behavior through the modulation of local environmental conditions. Thus it provides a powerful toolkit to study cellular processes involved in bone pathologies in vivo.

UNSTRUCTURED Childbirth is a physiologic process with significant medical risk, as neurological impairment due to the birthing process can occur at any time. Improvements in risk assessment and anticipatory interventions are constantly needed; however, the birthing process is difficult to assess using simple imaging technology since the maternal bony pelvis and fetal skeleton interfere with visualizing the soft tissues. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive technique with no ionizing radiation that can monitor the biomechanics of the birthing process. Effective utilization of this modality, however, requires teamwork and implementation of the appropriate safeguards to achieve appropriate safety levels. This article describes a clinically effective and safe method to perform real-time MRI during the birthing process. We report the experience of our team as part of the IMAGINAITRE research protocol (France), which aimed better understand of the biomechanics of childbirth.

Introduction: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) causes significant morbidity and mortality. Utility of early magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is not fully understood. Identifying patients in whom early MRI changes clinical management may improve outcomes in select patients and reduce costs overall by avoiding inpatient MRIs in patients who are unlikely to benefit. Hypothesis: We assessed the hypothesis that early MRI in patients with spontaneous ICH does not alter management acutely in older patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of all ICH admitted to our institution from 2006-2012. Patients were excluded if they 1) had a known underlying lesion, 2) were < 18 years, 3) suffered ICH as a result of trauma or 4) did not undergo MRI. Data were evaluated for clinical or radiographic characteristics that resulted in a change in clinical management, including surgical intervention or future avoidance of antithrombotic medications, among others. Results: In total, 248 patients with a median age of 70 years (IQR 58-78) were included. MRI changed management in 79 patients (31.9%). Initial MRI was obtained an average of 10 days after the hemorrhage. Possible structural abnormalities requiring emergent intervention were found in 14 (17.7%) patients, while 64 (81.0%) had findings concerning for other non-emergent/non-surgical anomalies (possible tumor (n=6), cavernoma (n=7), alternate diagnosis (n=1), probable amyloid angiopathy (n=21), evaluation for embolic phenomenon (n=13), evaluation for vasculitis (n=2), abnormal edema/enhancement (n=8), MRI led to additional non-invasive vascular imaging (n=6)). One patient (1.3%) was found to have a venous sinus thrombosis prompting anticoagulation. MRI was more likely to result in a change in management in patients < 55 years of age (47.1% vs 27.9%, p=0.009). Conclusions: MRI after ICH changed management in approximately one-third of patients and resulted in an immediate change in management in a minority of patients. Younger patients are more likely to benefit from early MRI. In older patients suspected of amyloid angiopathy that may preclude future antithrombotic therapy, delayed MRI in the outpatient setting may be reasonable.

Non-invasive imaging techniques such as ultrasonography, x-ray, computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provide details about airway anatomy that complement the physical examination. They are of particular value in patients with traumatic injury, malignancy, abscess, foreign body or mass in the airway that displace, distort, disrupt, encroach or compress airway structures in ways that may not be readily apparent otherwise. Many anesthesiologists do not receive formal training in interpreting medical imaging, and a thorough discussion of this subject is beyond the scope of this review. Interpreting the subtleties of normal and abnormal anatomy require years of experience and best left to expert radiologists. The goal here is to introduce the imaging techniques available and examples of clinical applications in airway evaluation of interest to the anesthesiologist. This review contains 12 figures, 2 tables, and 37 references. Keywords: piezoelectric effect, photoelectric interaction, Faraday’s law, pneumothorax, cervical spine injury, LeFort fracture, foreign body, airway infection, mediastinal mass
